One day

We will walk the path of light.

Unsure if our Lord will be pleased with us.

 

Will we be met with an embrace of Love

or will we see disappointment in the Face of our Saviour?

 

Least we forget the gifts of our Lord.

Will we be judged

on how we shared His gifts?

My mind still does not accept they are gone from this world.
I find myself many a time reaching for a phone
to call them.
 
It is a select group
these souls that were a part of my life.
Some are friends
that cannot ever be replaced
in the deep meaning of their unselfish love of me.
 
Others were my parents
who I never really knew as people.
There was the apple of my eye,
my step-daughter of many years.
Truly the only daughter
I ever knew in my life.
 
There were others
that I would have liked to have known better
they are now gone
without any notice from my life.
 
At times I find them in my thoughts
mind speaking with them about different things
reaching and seeking unresponsive council  from now
an unfamilar place in my heart.
 
I know they are not really gone
they are just in a different place than me
a place that beckons me as my own death comes closer each day.
 
You see I never have gotten comfortable with Death.
So my dear friends
my dearest of loved ones
make a place for me.
 
A place where again
we can laugh and love
and talk about
all that is around us
each day of the eternity before us.

There is a happy place in my mind.
A place of loving memories.
A place where I have experienced love from another.
It is a place that belongs to no other.
It cannot be taken from me.
 
The joyful light that fills that room
cannot be clicked off by anyone.
It was a more gentle time in my life.
A time when another made me feel special.
Their words were kind
their touch was with love.
 
It is the place I am
when you ask me,
“what are you thinking?”
You see
in this place there is no meanest
no words of hurt upon my soul
no seeming lack of thought.
 
You created this special place for me.
It was built word by word by you.
Words of discouragement.
Words of anger.
Words of bitterness.
Finally you reached a point
that you completedly ripped out my heart.
 
In this place
I again
find my heart.
A heart that now remembers
what it was like
to be truly loved
by another.

There are times
that reaching back in our memories
is the only way we can attempt
to rediscover happiness in our present lives.
 
As hard as we try
those memories remain swirling mists
from the times of our fleeing youth
never felt again
nor tasted.
 
We cry out in an agony of painful want
but find no release.
Could this place in our lives
be but a preview
of an unending terrible hell?
 
We are only left with an undisclosed  fear
that possibly a heaven does not exist,
but is a creation of imagination
out of our own fears. 
 
“Is this all there is?” we whisper
in a silent room in our minds.
Only by our prayers
to our Lord
prior to our earthly deaths
will we find joys beyond the ones
we have experienced in this world.
 
We will find glorious happiness in another world
by the promises of His Word.
Upon that moment
let what was my blinded eyes
in the temporary joys of this world
be opended again
to the eternal glory of His Name.

Linda, "The Ultimate Servant"

 
 
My Beloved just left.
The Ultimate Servant is she.
Always giving,
always receiving little in return.
More and more each day,
am I now believing that God,
must be a woman.
When she leaves on another mission,
of mercy and care for another,
I always find myself in sadness.
Never does it seem,
that I ever have the chance to tell her,
how much I love her,
and how precious she is,
to me.

When such pain goes beyond

metal against metal

pushing and tearing

beyond the tolerances of strength.

 

 

Truly oh what passion

lies within thee

when finding release again

in one who will truly love you again

in the truth of their spirit and heart.

 

Heart be still

mind be of strength

love awaits.

This time to carry you beyond

the eternal doors of joy and happiness.

I have walked through the waters of sorrow.
Tears, blocking the sun of day,
as I stumbled each step of the way.
My voice softened to a whisper of sound,
in calling my Lord.
I am weary from pushing these feet,
wanting to rest, but cannot.
Was the answer I seek finally before me?
 
It was only when I finally gave up on me,
and turned to thee, that the answer awaited me.
Only through sorrow and pain,
can we know what Jesus gave us through His death.
Death of the mind, death of desire, death of worldly want,
only then can we surrender to His will,
and give up our own,
do we find Him, in the midst of eternal love.
A garment of light to carry us forward,
so that we never will shed a tear again.

I seek not praise or adoration,
just the warmness of your touch.
A friendship that seeks not reward
nor return.
A connection of understanding
between these gulfs
that separate us as humans
from different times and places,
even though we have not lived the same.
Love that overcomes all barriers between us,
without fear,
without reprisal,
to continue into time without limit for us.
To finally find,
at some point ahead,
the binding of our souls,
that will never leave us,
alone again.
